About the role

The Lead IT Systems Engineer will support the Department of Homeland Security and NCPS initiatives, providing hands-on transport engineering and operations expertise across the transport network. You will collaborate with the ISSM to create an integrated IT Security organization for the program.

Required qualifications include: Top Secret/SCI clearance, Security+ or DoD 8570.1 Level 2, and at least 5 years in a network management environment with DWDM/SONET/OTN proficiency.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
